The DesChutea is one of the lead ing streams of the world for power, and so very few there are who see it daily that appjj^ciate its worth, we are pleased to extend praise of it, for the value of a stream for pow er purposes depends upon the som of water flowing and also upon its bead; both of which are perfect in DesCnutes river, with the addition al great advantage of never over flowing its banks, but once in 100 years. Its one cubic foot of wu&i a second may equal. in energy the total stored energy of many million tons of coal. The railroad now in course of construction along its west bank to Central Oregon from the Columbia river, will require uo fuel account in its operating ex- peuses. Prof. A. H. Terry, the venerable scientist, explorer and inventor, of St. Louis, has recently secured a patent on a mechanical device for operating an electrical dynamo by water power famished by a running stream oi water by which he can, as a ridiculously small cost harness the wasted energy of any flowing stream in the world and force it to do the work of manufacturers and turn the wheels of commerce so cheaply that coal will cease to lie a necessity for that purpose. His most recent invention, uiid one that is attracting the most at tention is a device for raising water hjshydro-pneumatic pump.so nam ed from the fact (hit the pumping is done by forcing air into the water under high pressure. The prlnci pie is entirely new and original, and is based upon the well known scientific fact that every particle of atmosphere is equally elect rifled. By the introduction of r < device in tbe form of a ndzzle, through which he forces a stream of compressed air into a standpipe at the bottom the air becomes highly charged with electricity, expanding enorm ously, aud rushes upward through the standpipe, lifting Ihe water with it and converting it into a big «pouting geyser, from which it may be piped any distance rated to the power. The new hydro pneumatic pump has been clearly tested, and is pronounced by machinists who have investigated it, to be thoro’ly practical. It is just the thing with which to settle tbe water and light and power question forever in the upland cities of Sherman county.

Baffling as spinal meningitis is to the medical profes sion in efforts to discover some effective treatment for the fatal malady, there are cases on record of the diseaie being cured by the most simple methods. In 1898, at Dyra, Alas ka, when men were dying during the gold rush to Klondike, an effective cure was brought about by the use of turpentine. One of the nurses at the camp at the foot of the pass took a case in hand after the dpetors had left a man to die. The patients’ spine was bathed in turpentine, rubbed in very thoroughly, then a hot bran poultice, saturated with tur pentine, was made, and the spine was packed in this, espe cially at the base of the brain. The man was doubled up with the affliction, but inside of a few hours he was on tho road to recovery. Two days later he was up and around and the next day was doing his regular work. This consti tuted all of ihe treatment given him. :: *x't>* D « n « « , Summer Pasture. Native bunch grass and lota of it. Abundance of water. Horae* taken at $1.50 per head per month. AU fenced.

The Pullman college class in bacteriology have been preparing for the fly-season by conducting experiments which show, in a readily understandable manner how flies are agents in carrying bacterial germs from place to place. A fly was set upon a p late c o n ta in in g bacteria and allow ed to walk oVer the plate, after which it was removed to anoth er plate that contained a nutritive substance, upon which the bacteria would thrive. The plate was then set aside and in a few days light colorod spots appeared, which soon grew until the entire course of the fly could be traced across the plate. This experiment is not entirely original, having been performed by prominent bacteriologists throughout the country. It serves, however Xo emphasize the fact that great care should bo taken to prevent flies from coming into homes, hotels, restaurants, etc., because of the danger of contagion in food that might result.
